You’ve got to Ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive. E-lim-i-nate the negative. Latch on to the affirmative, don’t mess with Mr. In-Between. I’m looking for the positives from this latest game in Foxborough, but apparently me and Mr. In-Between need to have some lengthy discussions. In case you are unfamiliar with the song…
I have to admit, I was a fan of the Patriots red jerseys. Great look and it helped get the gawd awful taste of Tom Brady and his ball-deflating, Ugg boot wearing ass out of my head. Although little Tommy Tom and Bellicheat are both long gone, anytime I see that damn Patriot logo I start to twitch and get flashbacks from 2001 to 2015. Captain Smoothballs went 15-4 against the Colts, back when we had a really good team, AND PEYTON MANNING! Our new and impro…well, the new version of the Colts allowed Drake Maye, (who was working as a greeter at the Northlake Commons Olive Garden in Charlotte up until week six of this season), to post up 24 points! All while utilizing the 32nd ranked offense to do so! For those of you playing at home, there are only 32 teams, so they aren’t very good. Thus, with the win, the Colts essentially beat up a toddler while they slept in their crib!
I really wanted to jump back into it this week with a positive piece about the direction of this franchise. I had a great idea of what I wanted to write. Winning fixes everything! A W is all they needed to right the ship after the Lions mauling. I was assuming the Colts would go into Cocksborough and take care of business against the rebuilding Patriots. Alas, it was not in the tarot cards my friend. We started the game like we meant business and by the end of the first half, it was the Patriots giving us the business. Gus and his schemes went right into suck mode as soon as the offense got us some points. Our biggest win this season was against da Bears and that was only by 5 points! Our defense sucks more than Madonna at an NBA players convention.
I am going to stick to my guns and say that I do like that Anthony Richardson is showing some passion and has some fire in his belly. I think his little two week double-secret probation from Dean Vernon Wermer punched Anthony right in the gooch and got his head on straight. Shane needs to play to ARs strengths and not try to turn him into a pocket passer. Dude has got the lowest sack rate because of his athleticism, not because three rookies on the O-line played better than people expected. There is much discussion to be had on how the Colts can help Anthony, and thus themselves get to the next level. This kid gives me hope for the future. As for the defense, as long as Gus is here, the only hope they are giving me is for a good draft pick next season. It was a win, but why do I feel like a need a shower?
Thank God it is the bye week. At least the only things I am in jeopardy of losing this week are my innocence and sanity.
